Investigation of the correlation between total blood potassium concentration and hematocrit.
The correlation between whole blood potassium concentration (Kt) and hematocrit (Ht) was investigated in subjects with a broad range ofHt. This relationship was found to be represented by a curve, and its form was derived by the manipulation of the formula concerning the inverse correlation between Ht and erythrocyte potassium concentration (Kc).
